SUCCESS COME

Favour Mbito 2002 (Mt Elgon)



So soon it came
The opportunity to connect
I couldn't call for more
For am already drunk
Of the sweet spirit of God

Black lives of no gain
Destroyed to live again
Glad I found this good way
Under his wings to overstay
Opponents never to find way

Dear God grant us the grace
To be able to bless
With our presence in to dress
Encouraging words from the suitcase
The key in your place
Unlock all doors to our success

A single helping hand to pack
Many hands will welcome you back
Shine bright our lives black
"Happy am out of this pack
My son has done good work!"

Tests for the righteous
Temptations they too receive
Equilibrium determined
If prayer is the solution
Keep watch to avoid collision
